An Intro to Bluetooth Mesh Part 1
Bluetooth® technology is one of the world's best known brands and one of the most ubiquitous wireless communications technologies on the planet. It's been in existence since 2000 and has found its way into billions and billions of devices. Last year alone, over three billion Bluetooth devices were shipped by manufacturers.
Introducing Bluetooth mesh networking
Bluetooth mesh capability enables many-to-many device communications in large-scale device networks for building automation sensor networks and other IoT solutions.
Telink adds support for Bluetooth mesh networks
Telink's software development kit that not only meets standard specs but enables real-time updates and synchronised control for applications such as lighting, healthcare and industrial control.
Mux chips support DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.0b
The PS8461 is a multiplexing chip that allows the selection between one of two dual mode DisplayPort inputs that are jitter-cleaned and repeated at the output.
Toshiba announces Bluetooth Mesh support
Support for the standard enables Toshiba Bluetooth Low Energy products to privately and securely traverse a mesh network rather than require a point-to-point connection between devices.
High linearity mixer offers 3-20GHz bandwidth
Linear Technology's LTC5553 delivers a linearity of 23.9 dBm IIP3 at 14GHz and 21.5 dBm at 17GHz while integrating an LO buffer requiring only 0dBm input drive.
AVX low-pass filters offer sharp rolloff for wireless apps
The LP Series filters offer low insertion loss and sharp roll-off for high frequency wireless applications, such as mobile comms, satellite TV receivers, GPS and WLAN.
Cloud-compatible Wi-Fi module draws 40µA standby
The SPWF04 Wi-Fi module features a hardware cryptographic accelerator and an SPI port for faster host communications, according to STMicroelectronics.
Can cellular V2X comms replace DSRC standard?
While a DSRC mandate is imminent in the U.S., ABI Research expects cellular V2X’s steady growth, reaching 300 million global subscriptions by 2030.
Network switch targets cost-sensitive organisations
The Ruckus ICX 7150 can operate in fanless mode outside of the wiring closet to provide silent operation.
Time-sensitive networking targets industrial automation
TSN offers a range of benefits to industrial networks, including specific end-to-end latency for mission-critical and time-sensitive applications.
CMOS electronics, Si-photonics integration targets 1Tb/s
The COSMICC-developed technology will address future data-transmission needs with a target cost per bit that traditional WDM transceivers cannot meet.
